Not as far as I can tell. The PHP4 OOP docs where moved to their own appendix
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/oop4.php) but no other elements of PHP4-specific
docs appear to have been given the same treatment. I'm all for doing this at
the earliest opportunity.

The docs for overload() appear to have disappeared up their own branch of the
space-time continuum, I was looking for them a few months back when I had the
displeasure of modifying some legacy PHP4 code. If someone could dig them out
I would actually personally appreciate it.

While we're on the subject of PHP4, do we really need both of the below?

http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration5.php

I'd be tempted to say that they are no longer necessary in the main manual at
all, but at the very least surely the two can be distilled to a single
section?

Thanks
